Hey Rick...

First, might I presume you meant to post this in the thread we were talking in, rather than start a whole new thread?

Second, I was trying to have some fun at your expense concerning your post that I responded to. Some of us do have a bit of a time following your train of thoughts. Here's your post and my reply.

SFfiredog Mike those blocks are high nickel, more webbing for support and a better oiling system, 4 bolt mains. The cranks where steel as well as the rods. Forged pistons where included with this motor. I kid I went to shool with had a yellow 302 boss. He raced at E-Town and put the rods through the block, he ended with a great boat anchor. Kelly was killed 2 years later street racing. Car was split in half by a tree. They towed it to his parents house and covered it. Both his parents died and the car went with the house auction. This was 2 1/2 years ago. The ID was worth the price of the car. Anyway He turned that motor to 9 grand all the time. He had 4.88 in the rearend. Tough motor. Rick Lake

So Rick, I just want to make sure I understand, you're saying that Boss 302s blow and kill people, but by golly they have a tough motor?





Sorry about getting your shorts twisted. I presummed you might have understood the humor...my bad.
